Dalian Forest Zoo

Reviewed By Syam_Azher - Islamabad Capital Territory, Pakistan

This zoo is amazing and it is designed wonderfully with very good shows and great verity of animals and birds. Come early in morning and bring lot of food and drinks to keep yourself hydrated and energetic. This place has Anibal and birds show which should never be missed. Try to watch bird show in evening at the end of your trip. Bring comfortable shoes and sun hats or umbrella for sun. Don’t forget to bring good Sameer with you. Avoid it in July and August, if you have option. Because humidity makes things difficult, specially when you are with kids.

Dalian Coast National Geological Park

Reviewed By Kim025Singapore - Singapore, Singapore

I took the light rail train line 3 from a building behind the railway station to the terminal stop at Golden Pebble Beach (RMB 8 for 50 mins journey). On arrival, I booked bus ticket from the tourist information centre on the right after exiting from station. Then I boarded the red bus and there are brochures at the ticket centre and I could find the stop I needed. It is a popular stop and many people alighted here. It is about 10 mins ride away. Entrance ticket is RMB 70 and the sceneries and types of rocks varies. At half way point one can sit down for a seafood meal. At the end of it, I just followed the crowd and took the bus out before finally changing to one that will bring me to the station. I would have love to explore more places if I have the time. On the return journey, I stopped at the development zone stop and took a taxi to visit the numerous cherry farms at Big Black Mountain for cherry picking. I would highly recommend this Geopark when visiting Dalian.

Xinghai Park

Reviewed By martina913 - Dalian, China

Dalian is a beautiful city of seven million with a great big park close to the downtown core. Xinghai Park features fantastic views of a bridge that's better than San Francisco's more famous one and two big sections dedicated to the big rides plus miles of beaches with restaurants and an enormous bungie jumping tower in the middle. And it's free. Dalian is a city that is greatly under-rated. What other city has a great beach like this so close to the downtown shopping area?!
